Photographer's Note

The solution of who was the person photographed in my last photo is: Cristina1.

After the snowfall of the last week, the weather has become beautiful. And it was a great surprise to find the classic snowdrops in the woods of the Ticino river. I never seen them in my part, there are lots of little bells ( Leucojum vernum ), but the Galanthus nivalis are really rare. I hope this naturalistic composition is to your liking.

Hello Luciano,
You are lucky to have beautiful weather again after a few days of winter. We have been covered with snow and suffering from cold weather for several weeks now. It will take some time until I can expect a beautiful view like this in my local parks. You placed one of these simple but incredibly pretty flowers perfectly in the foreground with an excellent use of the DOF.
Kind regards,
Gert

At first, I thought those were butterflies, Luciano, but the flowers are unique in shape, and wonderfully white on green.
Never saw this little-bells, and you wonderfully presented the sight within the woods.
Buona giornata,
Ike

Hello Luciano,
No tropical flowers this time.
Here in Belgium it isn't that cold anymore. It no longer freezes but also the very bright sunny winterdays have gone. We will have to wait a bit longer before it is spring.
Excellent close-up of this snowdrop surrounded by a few others and a beautiful forest environment.
Best regards, Paul

Hi Luciano,
So nice sign of spring! Those flowers look quite special, I don't think I've seen them before. Excellent focus on the nearest one. There's warmer weather here in Finalnd too. We have +3 degrees at the moment.

This is delighful!
Snowdrops are the messengers of spring!
They push their white heads through the soil and parade like fragile, white lanterns!
I love your off-centre, sharp exposure of the main flower, with an informative oof b/g beyond.

Hello Luciano
Maybe scares in the woods of the Ticino river, but certainly not in my garden. They are every year the first flowers announcing the arrival of spring even if it is still freezing and snowing. I like this excellent close up and the perfect used DOF.
Excellent work
Have a good week, groet Rob

Hi Luciano
A lovely reminder of Spring - delicate looking flowers well isolated and tack sharp! It's a real treat to see some rare plants which I have hitherto only seen in books. Splendid study of these hardy little characters always pretty to look at! Congrats
Best regards

Great macro capture of this flower, with perfect light and sharpness! Curious name of the species, it really looks like a bell, for it seems to grow upside down. Wonderful colors! Very nice composition!

Hi Luciano.
A magnificent composition and a real surprise, the vision of these rare flowers, which I had never seen before, curious the contrast of its whiteness with those green spots.
Very beautiful colorful, in a few tones, very attractive.
Good management of brightness and superb sharpness.
Very well done. My congratulations.
All the best and have a good start to the week.
Luis.
